Analysis

In the ongoing T20I series, West Indies batters have stepped up for their side, whenever the opposition had put the breaks on the scoring. Brandon King at the top of the order, while Nicholas Pooran, and captain Rovman Powell in the middle order have been the mainstays for the Men in Maroon against the Indians. With the ball in hand, Akeal Hosein has been carrying the spin bowling attack for the West Indies, while the fast bowlers like Alzarri Joseph and Romario Shepherd have gotten great support from the experienced pro Jason Holder.

Meanwhile, the batting lineup of Team India has been quite reliant on the young 20-year-old Tilak Varma, who made his debut for the national side in the ongoing T20I series against the West Indies. Suryakumar Yadav scoring 83 in quick time in Providence Stadium has also been helpful for the cause as far as Men in Blue are concerned. In the bowling department, Kuldeep Yadav has been the pick for Team India, taking wickets at key intervals to ensure that the opposition batters are kept under check right throughout their innings.
